Incredible Pokemon Cake Shows Charmander Evolving All the Way to Charizard

A Canadian cake designer created an incredible Pokemon treat that depicted Charmander, Charmeleon, and Charizard across multiple layers. They demonstrated how each cake layer was accessed in a short video on social media, and other Pokemon trainers complimented the baker for their efforts and creativity.

As the small flames spread out in a radius, Charmander's layer burned away to reveal Charmeleon. Both the Charmander and Charmeleon layers used official artwork, but the Charizard layer was different. As the flames burned through Charmeleon to reveal Charizard, a piece of fan art was revealed at the core of the burnaway cake. The Flame Pokemon was shown with its
